New major team preprint demonstrating antibodies from #longCOVID patients are sufficient to cause pathology and behavioral symptoms when transferred to mice. Importantly, they match individual patient symptoms to potential autoantigen targets and induced mouse behaviors
Prof. Akiko Iwasaki@VirusesImmunity

Sharing our new study by @keylas3, @SilvaJ_C, Rafael Bayarri Olmos et al (with T. Horvath & @PutrinoLab) showing that a passive transfer of IgG from patients with #longCOVID into mice recapitulates ⬆️ pain and other symptoms 🧵 (1/) medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

How do interactions between hypervariable loops shape TCR specificity? Can patterns of sequence co-variation help us pair alpha-beta chains using techniques developed for co-evolving proteins? New work led by @Martina_Milig now out on bioRxiv! 👇
Martina Milighetti@Martina_Milig

New preprint! We investigated the molecular interactions between the TCR CDR loops and find that these may be important in shaping TCR specificity and sequence biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
